Description

King’s Bounty: Warriors of the North is the next chapter in the cult RPG/adventure saga. The new tale takes place in the familiar world of Endoria featured in the previous games, but begins in the Viking lands, which the celebrated hero Bill Gilbert never visited during his famous quest in King’s Bounty: The Legend.

The Mighty Olaf, son of the Konung of Northlings, has dedicated his life to battling the undead who have infested the northern lands of Endoria. He seeks to liberate the snowy wastes, dwarven dungeons, and the very heart of Endoria, the kingdom of Darion itself, from the dark grip of necromancy. On his quest towards immortal glory he will encounter cunning foes and new friends, hard battles and amazing adventures.

The unique race of furious Vikings, as well as new neutral creatures

Additional battle spells and a completely new magic school - Runic Magic

Modified battle system based on the use of Runes

Chant - a unique ability of the Skald class which can turn a likely defeat into an overwhelming victory

Bugs you can't squash

More of the same gameplay from the first two enjoyable chapters but with a serious bug that makes some quests impossible to complete usually because some item is missing, if it is a story quest then the game can't be completed, a waste of many hours.

Good game but riddled with bugs

I really liked that the game was available so quickly for Mac and it it a rather good game, albeit very similar to the previous titles. But alas, it is full of bugs, most of which do not prevent one from finishing the game but they are annoying as hell. Hopefully the Mac version will get patched, the Win version is already one patch level ahead... :-/
